INFORMATION
Refined enchantment awaits.
Thoughtfully rehabbed over time and impeccably maintained – at roughly 2700 SQF (measured) this 4 bed 2 bath home is perched off the street and faces south west. The spacious living room surrounded by windows is bathed in western light. Living room connects to a courtyard patio. Dining room off the kitchen and boasts high ceilings and a traditional built-in. The updated kitchen with handsome stone counters faces east and has a separate wine fridge – plus the breakfast bar encourages mealtime connection. Three nicely sized bedrooms on the main level and bathroom with shower over tub. The primary suite on the upper level strikes the perfect balance between luxury and style. Vaulted ceiling and gas fireplace in primary bedroom - plus a huge walk-in closet. A cozy sitting room and five-star level spa bathroom overlooks the backyard. The sunken tub takes full advantage of the rear corner redwood tree. Walk in shower is highlighted by Carrara marble – and the dual sinks allow for personal opulence. On the lower level is a side entrance, laundry room, additional storage, and interior access to the 2 car garage. Also on lower level is a lovely carpeted “kids bonus room” ideal for Lego creations and letting imaginations soar. The courtyard seamlessly entered from either the hallway or the living room French doors - is tile with an outer walkway and stairs made of Ipe hardwood. There is a lovely fountain waterfall and outdoor heater. The back yard is simply magical. This private setting with a level lawn is surrounded by mature plantings, and a pleasant brick patio section with a built-in bench and outdoor dining table. It is easy to imagine hosting memorable dinner parties or simply connecting with family. Lots of storage outside and inside Chabot. The interior access to a 2 car garage makes parking a breeze. The attic space, accessed from the 2nd bedroom allows for more dry storage options.
Super Rockridge location. Literally close to EVERYTHING from BART to Market Hall, Chabot Elementary, Trader Joe’s, and The Ramen Shop to name a few local gems.
